About me

Work and wellbeing are not mutually exclusive!

That's my motto. 

Most of us have to work or study, but this shouldn't come at the expense of our health and happiness. 

Far too many people experience poor wellbeing as a result of their work...But we can do something about it.

Do any of these resonate with you?

  • Lack of work-life boundaries
  • Overwhelmed by workload
  • Juggling work and personal commitment
  • Work that isn't motivating
  • Feeling lost when it comes to career planning
  • Not feeling able to be yourself at work
  • Work that's not a good fit for your personality
  • Physical health taking a back seat
  • Personal goals put on hold because of work pressure

Let's work together to put things right.

My approach

There is a place for taking the plunge and jumping into things way beyond our comfort zone. I've taken this approach myself in the past and have come out the other side feeling surprised (and very proud) of achieving things I never thought possible! But in the longer term, the better you can understand yourself, the better you can take on big challenges in a way which feels less scary. 

Intentionally working in alignment with our personality, values, and preferences - rather than pushing beyond them - can be just as powerful. 

We aren't typically taught to understand ourselves very well. The emphasis is often on what you're good at, what skills you have, and how you can excel within the 'usual' study and career pathways. For lots of people (myself included), this leaves them feeling lost at times. Coaching can help you understand who you are, what you value, and how you define success for yourself. 

What to expect

I'll guide you through setting goals which align to your personality and values. I'll support you to chip away at your goals in a way which works for you, rather than against you. I do this by listening, asking curious questions, gently challenging you to consider different perspectives, and being there to celebrate your progress. 

  • Focus on wellbeing - Goals which complement, not compromise your wellbeing
  • Achievable steps - Move towards your goals in a way which feels 'right' rather than radical
  • Confidence - Identify small, manageable steps you'll feel confident taking
  • A calm and supportive space - to explore what matters to you
  • Judgment-free listening - I act as an objective sounding board
  • Gentle challenge - to consider new perspectives and take action
  • No advice - I won't tell you what to do, but I will support you to find your own way forward
  • Confidentiality - your confidentiality is always a priority
